&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Historically, R-factors were introduced by ... ???&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Definitions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Data quality indicators ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the following, all sums over hkl extend only over unique reflections with more than one observation!&lt;br /&gt;
* R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;sym&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; and R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;merge&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; - the formula for both is:&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 R = \frac{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{j} \vert I_{hkl,j}-\langle I_{hkl}\rangle\vert}{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{j}I_{hkl,j}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\langle I_{hkl}\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the average of symmetry- (or Friedel-) related observations of a unique reflection.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can be shown that this formula results in higher R-factors when the redundancy is higher &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;DiKa97&amp;quot;&amp;gt;K. Diederichs and P.A. Karplus (1997). Improved R-factors for diffraction data analysis in macromolecular crystallography. Nature Struct. Biol. 4, 269-275 [http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/strucbio/files/nsb-1997.pdf]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. In other words, low-redundancy datasets appear better than high-redundancy ones, which obviously violates the intention of having an indicator of data quality!&lt;br /&gt;
* Redundancy-independant version of the above: &lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 R_{meas} = \frac{\sum_{hkl} \sqrt \frac{n}{n-1} \sum_{j=1}^{n} \vert I_{hkl,j}-\langle I_{hkl}\rangle\vert}{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{j}I_{hkl,j}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
which unfortunately results in higher (but more realistic) numerical values than R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;sym&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; / R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;merge&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;DiKa97&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; (M.S. Weiss and R. Hilgenfeld (1997) On the use of the merging R-factor as a quality indicator for X-ray data. J. Appl. Crystallogr. 30, 203-205[http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0021889897003907]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* measuring quality of averaged intensities/amplitudes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for intensities use (M.S. Weiss. Global indicators of X-ray data quality. J. Appl. Cryst. (2001). 34, 130-135 [http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0021889800018227])&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 R_{p.i.m.} = \frac{\sum_{hkl} \sqrt \frac{1}{n} \sum_{j=1}^{n} \vert I_{hkl,j}-\langle I_{hkl}\rangle\vert}{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{j}I_{hkl,j}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;R_{mrgd-I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is similarly defined in Diederichs and Karplus &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;DiKa97&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, one should use R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;mrgd-F&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; as a quality indicator for amplitudes &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;DiKa97&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;, which may be calculated as: &lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 R_{mrgd-F} = \frac{\sum_{hkl} \sqrt \frac{1}{n} \sum_{j=1}^{n} \vert F_{hkl,j}-\langle F_{hkl}\rangle\vert}{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{j}F_{hkl,j}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\langle F_{hkl}\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; defined analogously as &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\langle I_{hkl}\rangle&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Model quality indicators ===&lt;br /&gt;
* R and R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;free&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; : the formula for both is &lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 R=\frac{\sum_{hkl}\vert F_{hkl}^{obs}-F_{hkl}^{calc}\vert}{\sum_{hkl} F_{hkl}^{obs}}&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;F_{hkl}^{obs}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;F_{hkl}^{calc}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; have to be scaled w.r.t. each other. R and R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;free&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; differ in the set of reflections they are calculated from: R is calculated for the [[working set]], whereas R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;free&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; is calculated for the [[test set]].&lt;br /&gt;

All crystals should look like this (or better)&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:xtals.jpg||pretty xtals]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Problem? - I tried uploading xtals.png but Wiki does not let me upload, quoting that &#039;wrong file type or extension&#039; - yet it allowed me to load up the same image in jpg format. Png is a nice (some would even say the best) format so it&#039;d be good to be able to use it! -AGE&lt;br /&gt;
This is fixed now. --[[User:Kay|Kay]] 10:12, 5 February 2008 (CET)&lt;br /&gt;

Remark: &lt;br /&gt;
MIME type of PNG files was not correctly identified. To fix this, we added the lines&lt;br /&gt;
